(from Google)Great food. The line moves quickly and there are plenty of great tables with great views. Friendly staff as well.
An Edgewater neighborhood summer classic! Enjoy the lakefront of Lake Michigan to chill tunes and delicious food! My favorite is the Lobster 🦞 Roll. Love coming here alone or with a friend.
A very nice place to get drinks, meals and hang out with friends and family. The atmosphere is very beautiful!! Sipping a drink next to the lake and the view of the downtown sky line is very beautiful. A cool place!!!
Went on a perfect 70 degree, breezy day. The staff was sweet and welcoming. The star of the show was the lobster roll. I prefer a cold lobster roll over a hot one and this one was perfect!! Wish they had more items on the menu. You do get a discount if you pay cash.
Cutest café right on the lake! The lobster roll and crab roll were pretty good, though I prefer the buns to be toasted and warm. The lemonade was delicious, and the ceviche was also pretty good. Great atmosphere with a cute park right next to it, literally! Hidden little gem in Chicago. There is LIVE music every Wednesday night. I felt like I was on vacation in a tropical place. My kind of vibe!
